THE BEE’S

KNEES

Bees have become a hot topic recently as climate change

and exposure to agrochemicals and disease have caused their

population to dwindle, but honey has long been on the beauty

radar as a natural skin salve, with women harnessing its

antibacterial and antioxidant properties to manage acne and

soften skin (Cleopatra was said to take regular milk and honey

baths). Honey is what led New York-based Kiehl’s to New

Zealand’s manuka flower and its legendary nectar, which is

brimming with clinically proven cell-repairing, collagen-

boosting, and anti-inflammatory goodness. Sweet, indeed.
